ARRET DEMANDE
立刻停止

Work Title: “Stop Immediately”

Creation time: 2008

Work Category: Installation Art

Work dimensions: 0.2, 0.5, 1.2 meters

Work materials: Light box, lighting

Creation Note: This is an interactive installation with the audience, inspired by the ARRET DEMANDE prompt button on French buses that requests to stop. Based on the relationship between the crowd and time, this especially creates a tension for a stranger in a specific space. I found that the “ARRET DEMAND” used to create the work was actually spreading another problem message. The driver must abide by this order. This is an emotion I feel in this situation. “ARRET DEMAND” is also a concept that allows the imagination to flow freely. The structure of the work is that I made an installation box out of wood, placed a fluorescent tube inside, stuck self-adhesive tape and laser-hollowed-out text on the front, and transformed it into a screen message. Then, an interactive platform for buttons was made of wood. Finally, I installed a timer and wires to connect and control the feedback relationship between the audience and the work. The distance between the interactive switch of the device and the display is 3 meters. When the audience enters and presses the button (for interaction), the screen will display “ARRET DEMAND”. One minute later, the lights will automatically turn off and the letters “ARRET DEMAND” will also be turned off. The work conveys a tense atmosphere through distance, space and air. When the audience sees the letter “ARRET DEMAND”, the work makes them think about why “ARRET DEMAND” might offer the audience a lot of room for imagination.

创作说明:这是与观众互动装置,灵感源自法国公交车上的要求停车的提示按钮ARRET DEMANDE。基于人群和时间的关系,这尤其给一个陌生人在特定空间中创造了一种张力。我发现用来做作品的“ARRET DEMAND”却传播了另外的问题讯息。司机必须遵守这一命令,这是我在这种情况下感受到的一种情感,“ARRET DEMAND”也是允许想象力自由流动的一个概念。作品的结构是我用木头做了一个装置盒子,在里面放了一个荧光灯管,在前面粘不干胶和激光镂空的文字,转换成一个屏幕信息;然后再用木头做了按钮用的交互平台。最后,我装了一个计时器和电线来连接、控制观众和作品之间的反馈关系。装置的交互开关和显示器之间的距离为3米,当观众进入并按下按钮(互动)时,屏幕会显示“ARRET DEMAND”,一分钟后,灯光会自动关闭,字母“ARRET DEMAND”也会关闭。作品通过距离、空间和空气传播紧张氛围,当观众在看到字母“ARRET DEMAND”后,作品使其思考为什么“ARRET DEMAND”,可能会带给观众很多想象的空间。
